Integration



I'm always striving to be more original. I think an effective way to stay original is to combine different art forms and techniques into one cohesive piece.


When I watch this video, I'm paying attention to so many things, the illustrations, visual effects, art design, cinematography, live action, model making, sound design, puppetry, storytelling, etc.


If every element was alone, separate from each other,
this video would be OK, normal, regular...
But when everything is combined and seamlessly working off each other,
something exceptional is made.

For me, this video inspires me to never feel trapped by one medium or format and to always be open to combining techniques and different forms of art.

  1. What I love about this short is that the story is totally told with pictures, and the techniques don't get in the way of the story. It's like the opening sequence in "Up"...you just get it right away.
